US-IDF strikes Bandar Khamir port city in southern Iran — at least 5 killed

Joint US-Israeli strikes hit the port city of Bandar Khamir in Hormozgan province, southern Iran on March 29, killing at least five people. Bandar Khamir is a Persian Gulf port city on Iran's southern coast in Hormozgan province, approximately 170km northeast of Bandar Abbas. The strike represents one of the few confirmed attacks on populated port infrastructure in Iran's south, distinct from the military strikes on Bandar Abbas IRGC Navy facilities. The city's proximity to the Strait of Hormuz makes it operationally relevant to the US-Israeli campaign to pressure Iran over Hormuz closure. The attack killed at least five civilians or port workers. Iran's state media reported the deaths.
